Merchandise
Becker Funeral Home provides a wide and varied selection of funeral merchandise to meet the needs of all families we serve.
Caskets are made of basically two materials. They are either metal or wood. The finest metals are made of bronze. Following bronze in quality is copper followed by stainless steel. Then you have the basic steels of 18 and 20 gauge steel. 20 gauge is the lightest metal caskets are made from. Bronze and copper caskets are resistant to rust and corrosion, as are certain types of stainless steel caskets.
Caskets are also made of wood materials, such as Mahogany, Walnut, Oak, Cherry, Poplar and other types of woods. The majority of the metal caskets we offer are protective caskets, while the hardwood caskets are non-protective. Most families choose to place the casket in a lined outer burial container, however this is not required by law.
We also offer a wide variety of outer burial containers. Some people refer to these as a vault, however, a vault is a protective container that is water tight and air tight. This is not required by law, although most cemeteries have a requirement of at least a concrete box or grave liner which is not water or air tight.
Memorial Urns are permanent containers for the cremated remains. Your personal plans for the final placement of the urn can play an important part in your selection process. A wide range of styles and prices appropriate for burial, niches, scattering, keepsakes or placement in a home are available. Some urns are ornately designed for display purposes while others are very basic in style. Many of the urns can also be personalized.
